Lyrics Rabblerouse - Milo, Kenny Segal

Rabblerouse

they couldn’t predicate upon a precipice
bet,
i feel like Perseus-- but less merciful
i’m thirstiest, most of all
impervious
the Wordsmith gets
knee-deeper, beleagured his burdens at will:
summon purpose
«i'm weaker when the light is on» portion of the pie chart i share with
tweakers wearing nylon
i might build you a Worthwhile Fortress
with borrowed resources
on the front door we painted a picture of the meek tortoise.
world-picturing, place-making, gate-keeping
I DO MY BEST SCHEMING IN THE LATE EVENING
I WRITE POEMS AND
BUILD SUITS OF ARMOR
FOR SUICIDE NOTE AUTHORS
the melungeon porch monkey accompaniment got caught
wonderin' out loud, again.
you scrawled the word, «discursive» in cursive
and called yourself, «subversive»
WE ALL BELLY LAUGHED
i wrote this rap from
Mike Eagle’s helipad…
now watch me dance.
now watch me dance.
